I also never used AdBlock, I never really saw the problem. Mind you, I also don't have Flash installed which may have helped.
But then a month ago I was reading a article and halfway down bits starting disappearing from my screen and a fripping animated transformer appeared right over the text I was reading. That killed it for me, I finally spent the few minutes to workout how to installed AdBlock just so I could read the bloody article in peace.
I suppose a lot more gets blocked as collateral damage but I'm not sure whether I care about that...
